ABSURDITY From this distance the trials of German war} criminals now being conducted: at Leipsic under | the terms of the Versailles treaty seem to be far-' cical to the last degree. There have been a few convictions of subordin-| ‘ate officers, the penalties inflicted being merely ‘nominal.

Roberts While Sprinkle-Blow and the Twins Were talking to Biddy Bantam about her nest ‘in the hay stack, someboay {else was planning for night. That was Chris Crow: Chris was mighty hungry and ali the green things growing around every where didn’t interest him at ali. He was watching Yor Munchie Mouse or Tillie. Toad, or Lazy Lizard or somebody that would make a meal worth while. He had to keep alive some way until corn planting time, and the oats Farmer Smith had just put in didn’t appeal to him a scrap. Oats, Chris never ate, although oat sprouts and wheat-sprouts he might sample if he found them without tos much trouble. Suddenly: something scurried along right under his nose, something very little and brown and soft, with two long ears and the weentiest nothing of a tail; 8 “Um-m-m!” sniffed Chris. “That EVERETT TRUE: OUR HIKE, MR.
